Where is a good place to get a good set of head bolts and a head gasket for the 12 valve cummins?

 

How about one of our many site sponsors?

 

when upgrading your head you will be going from head bolts to head studs.

here is a link for the ARP head stud kit. ARP makes the .030 head gasket as well.

i love the days we get to 0 let the truck get up to temp then pore the edit to it and let all the ricers see what my huge truck can do. i can drift corners in the snow better than they can with the cars and e-braking it, although you can hardly see me with all the black sooty diesel smoke

 

What is a good air filter for the 12 valve? I already have the intake I just need a good filter.

 

IMO the AFE with progaurd 7 media is the best in filtration. if your looking for a good filter, but it is a few more bucks thatn the others, but to me truly un "dusted" air is worth the price.

i drive up and down oilfield coleche roads all day and when i pull my filter for service there is barely ever even a trail of dust i can wipe away from the torque tube with my finger.

others to look at are S&B and the AFE dry filter.

the key here is to stay away from K&N!!!!!!!!!!!

 

What about the BHAF filter that what I've been running with good service.

 

Why use a BHAF when you can have an AEM Dryflow or AFE Prodry S??



Seems like a waste to me that you just throw the BHAF away. Get a WASHABLE filter.

 

ALSO, some of the big power guys will tell you that the BHAF's will collapse after a while. depending on which on you use. i am pushing roughly 600hp at the flywheel on my CR and my afe has hardly any crush

my 12v had a NAPA BHAF on it when i got it and it was half caved in from being wet when driving in the rain

 

Yes, the BHAF doesnt handle moisture very well. Unless you run a prefilter/cover
